Although now facing Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others, Zhao Hui is already in control.

But if Shen Kui can develop the latest artillery before the war starts next year, it will naturally be able to bring Zhao Hui's strength to a higher level.

Catapults launch clay pots, after all, they are still not stable enough.

And it's even more dangerous. In terms of power, it is not as good as artillery.

Although Zhuge Liang was not there, Meng Jian and others also stayed.

They are studying in Yecheng for the time being, and if they go or stay, Zhao Hui will not force them.

Jingzhou!

Liu Bei sent countless spies, and finally his hard work paid off, allowing him to discover Pang Tong.

At this time, Pang Tong was still in Jingzhou and had not yet gone to Yangzhou.

Liu Bei didn't get Zhuge Liang, and after seeing Pang Tong, he didn't underestimate Pang Tong's ability because of his appearance.

played his sincere expression, pulled Pang Tong back to Xiangyang, and that night, he drove Guan Zhang out, and wanted to sleep with Pang Tong.

Pang Tong is indeed a bull who is not inferior to Zhuge Liang.

It's just that after chatting with Liu Bei for a day and a night, Liu Bei regained his confidence.

also gave Liu Bei a few road options.

Liu Bei, who has a way forward, or a way out, is no longer afraid to face Zhao Hui.

Even if he loses again next year, he still has a way to go.

Jingzhou has changed a lot this year.

Zhang Yun still couldn't fight Liu Bei after all, even though he had been hiding in the barracks, but the military power in his hands was still taken back by Liu Bei.

In addition, Liu Bei also recruited another 50,000 soldiers this year.

Now he already has 250,000 troops in his hands, if you add the 50,000 in Cao Cao's hands.

Jingzhou now has an army of 300,000.

Sun Ce of Yangzhou now has an army of 200,000 in his hands.

They only need to pull Sun Ce, with an army of 500,000, and they can always fight with Zhao Hui.

With Pang Tong's Liu Bei, he began to contact Cao Cao and Sun Ce to seek tripartite cooperation.

Although he was reluctant to join forces with Cao Cao at the beginning, now, Liu Bei has followed Pang Tong's advice.

However, Zhao Hui was also contacting Lu Bu and Sun Ce.

Zhao Hui sent a delegation to Xuzhou with clay pots.

In front of Lu Bu, the power of the explosion of several clay pots was demonstrated.

I hope that Lu Bu will send troops together this time and cooperate with Zhao Hui to go south.

Zhao Hui attacked Jingzhou, and if Sun Ce joined forces with Cao Cao and Liu Bei, then Lü Bu went south to attack Yangzhou.

If Sun Ce is still willing to join forces with Zhao Hui, then the three parties will attack Jingzhou together.

Lu Bu was already biased towards Zhao Hui, and he was unwilling to go against Zhao Hui.

If the situation is so obvious today, he has no reason to go against Zhao Hui.

So after seeing the power of the clay pot explosion, Lu Bu directly agreed to Zhao Hui's request.

And the mission also promised Lu Bu that he would send a batch of clay pots, as well as binoculars, as well as grain and grass materials, etc., and Zhao Hui would help.

The mission also went to Yangzhou, but compared to Lu Bu's simplicity, Sun Ce did not give a guarantee in the end.

Cui Yan has been working hard in Yangzhou for more than a year.

In addition, Zhou Yu did not agree with Sun Ce's surrender to Zhao Hui.

He also wanted to sweep the world with Sun Ce, how could he be willing to step out of Yangzhou before everything was over.

Time flies quickly, Chinese New Year's Eve, Shangyuan Festival, one by one cheerful and festive festivals pass.

During this period, warships and cargo ships traveled between Youzhou, Jizhou, and Xuzhou.

Boatloads of supplies were transported from Youzhou and Jizhou to Xuzhou.

Some stayed in Xuzhou, and some were sent to Yuzhou.

The 300,000 army in Zhao Hui's hands is also ready.

From Jizhou to Yuzhou, the Taishou of various counties along the way have also prepared grain and grass materials. Yue eBook

Or wait until the end of spring ploughing, Zhao Huijun waved his flag, and 300,000 troops rushed to the south.

Zhao Hui originally wanted to bring Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang and Shen Kui had already begun to study artillery together, and it was a critical moment.

Zhuge Liang is reluctant to leave now, he wants to research the artillery first.

As for Zhao Hui leading the army south, there are already enough strategists around him, and he is not one behind.

Even if he goes, his strategy will not be much stronger than Guo Jiajia's.

Moreover, with Zhao Hui's current strength, there is almost no suspense in this battle, and Zhuge Liang doesn't want to go even more.

Or stay in the Yellow Turban Village and study these things to make him feel more accomplished.

It's not just artillery, there's more.

At the stage when Huang Turban Village was learning from Shen Kui, Zhuge Liang had already made his Zhuge Repeater.

However, Zhao Jun now has clay pots, and Zhuge Repeater is currently only a small part of it.

The Zhuge crossbow is very useful for defending the city, but it is not very useful for siege.

To siege the city, you still need artillery.

If there is artillery, even the hardest city walls can blow him down.

Now although Zhao Hui is in his hands, it is only a simplified version, but the effect is still very powerful.

The soldiers and horses in Liu Bei Cao Cao's hands have never seen such power, as long as they fight, in their chaos, Zhao Hui can easily break through the city.

300,000 troops, still going in batches.

Zhao Yunxian led an army of 100,000 to the south, and will meet with Dian Wei Xu Shu at Yingchuan.

Zhao Huiqin led an army of 200,000 and then set off.

The distance from Zhao Yun's vanguard was controlled within two hundred miles.

It's just two days away.

Because along the way, all the county guards provided supplies, and the army did not need to carry too much baggage, so the army could easily run a hundred miles a day.

The army went south, and the people of Jingzhou were panicked.

There are not a few people who want to surrender.

After all, these families in Jingzhou have long been accustomed to stability.

Even when Liu Biao was there, they were not willing to go to war with the outside world, but just wanted to hold Jingzhou.

It's just that now, it is Liu Bei who is in power in Jingzhou. It's not Liu Biao.

Although Liu Bei has always shown his benevolence and generosity to the outside world, he is much tougher than Liu Biao in his bones.

And now that the military power has been controlled by Liu Bei, it is naturally not those who can surrender when they say surrender.

Moreover, Liu Bei still has Liu Yin, a six-year-old little emperor, in his hands.

If Jingzhou surrendered like Zhao Hui, this little emperor would definitely be deposed.

Liu Bei and Cao Cao have joined forces.

After learning that Zhao Hui had sent troops, Liu Bei's men and horses also began to support Xinye.

Those who wanted to surrender, they couldn't stop Liu Bei.

Sun Ce in Yangzhou has not moved for the time being.

Zhou Yu persuaded him to send troops to resist Zhao Hui with Liu Bei and Cao Cao.

Now Zhao Hui's strength, only when the three of them join forces can they be able to stop Zhao Hui.

However, Sun Ce still chose not to move.

Sun Ce remembered that Zhao Hui had sent Hua Tuo to heal him.

If Hua Tuo hadn't come, he would have died.

Of course, this is only one of the reasons.

And he and Zhao Hui have been allied before, and the strength shown by Zhao Hui is that even if the three parties join forces, will they definitely be able to defeat Zhao Hui?

Sun Ce did not have the confidence in Zhou Yu's heart.

Moreover, on the edge of Yangzhou, there is also a Lu Bu.

Judging from the information received now, Lu Bu is on Zhao Hui's side.
